  • No - Obama can't control everything. But, I have MANY criticisms. Here's just one: can someone please explain Lawrence Summers to me? He first came to my attention in '04(?) as the ignorant pig who, as the president of fucking Harvard, sugges…
  • One of the other Oregonians speaking up here. I have really been too busy with classes (its finals week y'all) to pay attention to the Strut lately, but this one leaped out at me. There are a couple of facts that folks are missing in this "Win Teh I…

  • LOL @ the casting suggestions. Your guys are much better than mine. I'd thought Assange should be played by Macauley Caulkin! Ha ha. luck said: But that's not what actually happened here. Manning - the reports aren't fully clear to me - appea…
  • The real issue, which is your favorite of Assange's many hairdon'ts? I'm liking the more current look: Here's another view. I've seen it described as 'beaver chewed': But these are all compelling too: …
  • DocMcCoy said:Shame he chose to dodge the only awkward question that was put in front of him. There are perfectly reasonable rebuttals to diplomat dude's arguments which have been made many times before. His 'question' does contain a lot of opinio…
  • I'd like to be addressed as 'elder master' in public, btw.
  • yeah - I think of how bad of drivers a lot of Americans are, and most of us have been riding in cars since infancy, absorbing the rules of the road as we grew. If you're like me, your parents let you steer when you're a kid, and drive in fields and …
  • nzshadow said:Soulstrut, what are your thoughts on this: http://www.bradleymanning.org/ What he did was treason right? If Wikileaks is being championed, shouldnt the whistleblower recieve the same praise? B/W Dude is FUCKED. …
  • luck said:which only stands to hamper the process of - here it comes - necessary Statecraft? LOL - ahh yes. The fine, gentlemanly art of statecraft. The 'art' the US was so elegantly using to influence Spanish prosecutors and government off…
  • ^^^387: Arms Trader 2009 http://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/387/arms-trader-2009 That one was hilarious. And sad. Yet more of the same. Edit to add: LaserWolf said: Missed it. Find it and I will listen. …

  • Yeah, cuz the FBI is SO effective in it's war on terror! You GTFO! I'm not saying I feel sorry for the kid. He's an idiot, clearly. I'm SAYING, the current approach of the US government, military, FBI. etc. is more than incompetent, it…
  • LOL - well, I guess he doesn't do anything to disprove the theory that most latent jihadi suicide bombers / shooters are engineers. Okay - so he's 19. Technically an adult, but brain development-wise still a teen. He was an immigrant from a c…
  • Surely you can't be serious?
  • damms said:so if I got it right the FBI prevented a teen from blowing up a fake bomb they provided him with AFTER convincing him of pursuing that action by making him believe he was receiving orders from fake jihadists who were actual FBI age…
  • bassie said: I've never been a big fan of Kanye as a rapper, I like what he does much more when he's producing others. I enjoy his own songs here and there but none of his whole records keep my interest. Agreed 100%. I was a fan until he starte…
  • Ha ha! I was just discussing that with someone! Happy Turkey day all. I wanna stay home and eat a sammich. Have to jet off to relative's with 30 or so people who don't like each other. Maybe they'll get food poisoning from my strudel!!
  • Someone should make an edit where they chop all the songs down to under 4 minutes. I think I'm not the only one who doesn't have the patience for 8+ minutes of noodling. Sorry if someone already said that. Like Kanye's songs, this thread is t…
  • Reynaldo said:Unherd said:You guys don't think these machines have the ability to see a bomb stuffed up your ass? The ones that can aren't currently in use. That's what's so stupid about these 'backscatter' machines. People have been usin…
  • damms said:South Korea are such pussies this is not the 1st time kim jong trill punks them they never retaliate I'm sure the nuclear threat is one factor, but I think the bigger factor is that S.Korea is part of the big time now. The…

  • Fuck what? Empathizing with someone who has a shitty job?
  • I do feel sorry for the agents - somewhat. They're just low paid people trying to do their jobs. Could you imagine if your encounters with people over and over again began with them lifting their arms, and you having to dive into their sweaty…
  • mannybolone said:I can't remember where I read this but it came out a few years ago, probably around the time they started confiscating water bottles because some jerk off tried to mix a chemical bomb on a plane, but it basically argued that TSA bas…
  • Actually those 'flying is the safest mode of travel' stats are gamed by the airline industry. They calculate your risk of dying per mile traveled. Not per trip. Since flights involve such long distances, of course, your chance of dying per mi…
  • I don't get poutine. But I always have some in Canada just cuz I feel like I should. Though, I've never had any in Montreal - only Ontario, so I'll reserve final judgement til then. Doesn't anyone think the ingredients don't work together - i…
  • mannybolone said:Just wanted to give Faux a nod for helping me with the lede to my NPR review that runs today. Ha ha! I was just in my kitchen, cooking dinner and listening to the news, and when the review came on, I was like - 'Hey, that quot…
